FA TE Foster Moreau visited Saints again to complete physical (Moreau and Saints agreed to a contract before lymphoma diagnosis per PFT) (1 Viewer)

As a heme/onc fellow (and by further specialization I actually see only benign and malignant hematology at a major cancer center) his prognosis is exceedingly favorable. There are really only two aggressive lymphomas we love treating because the cure rate is so high, this and primary mediastinal b cell lymphoma.

Layman's terms please and when possible 3rd grade reading level

Can we sign him, put him on the nonfootball related injury list then activate him this year for the playoffs? (If he's healed up)
We may actually GET calls in the playoffs if the NFL can make money off the story the can out out.

My daughter was Diagnosed with the Mediastinal B cell lymphoma in January of her senior year. She walked across the stage in May graduating with honors and distinction. By july she was declared cancer free and that was in 2017. St. Jude covered it all. These types of Lymphoma are extremely treatable. Hers was stage 3 when they caught it. glad they found his sooner.

St. Jude covered it all.

Man, St. Jude really is something special - as are the people who support them.

I spent a few weeks there during the summer while getting my PsyD as an offer by one of my professors, and the environment they're able to create despite such heartbreaking circumstances (at times) is nothing short of amazing. I've never seen anything else quite like it.

For a professional sports franchise to keep engaging with a player they agreed to contract terms with prior to a cancer revealing physical is shocking to most citizen's expected response from an American corporation. It is reassuring and less startling as a Saints fan in the context of an owner who has promised an endowment and retention of franchise in location to the city of New Orleans upon her death. The common decision maker in both is a woman who has appeared to keep a promise in the regard of Moreau (i.e. to do right by him in a way that is not in the American legal system's tentacles required.)

Moreau is a native New Orleanian. He went to Jesuit before LSU. There is a palpable empathy as in our scattered tribe he is one of us before even entering the facility.

I am unaware of the byzantine verbiage of unsigned NFL four-year veterans health insurance policies but the American in me knows, when you are unemployed you are SOL, out of pocket, risk bankruptcy if you get the Big C in the USA. To alleviate such a nightmare for any citizen when the coproration has no legal obligation to is to be pardoned by a god. It is for the peasants a battle of cynicism and gratitude to imagine any prospective employer of ours repeating such a miracle. For this I applaud the Saints even if Moreau never plays a down again. The scientist in me knows a full recovery of an early cancer diagnosis is likely and the gratitude and passion in Foster Moreau's Who Dat heart may go down in the history of Steve Gleason-esque unification of pride in how our franchise can inspire a people in a demonstration of human dignity albeit to a lower scale but nonetheless admirable.
